You kill livestock, much more than they do. 2. Why do you care how many deer or elk they kill??? You're just jealous because you want to kill them! At least they kill for food. You kill for sport. We know you don't need the food, because you're a rancher. And, duh, the whole point of a good ecosystem is that bigger mammals keep the others in check. Wolves kill the easiest animals to catch: sick or old, or sadly, the young. But they make the herds healthier, unlike hunters. Your point about dogs is what? Do you know how many dogs and cats are killed in shelters each year? I am very sorry that someone lost their pet, but they sound kind of stupid to me. Before I moved to LA, the VERY first thing I was told was, watch out for coyotes if you have a dog or cat. If your friends don't take care of their pets, they're bad pet owners.

As a rancher, naturally I was concerned about the possible endangerment of my livestock and as a hunter, the possible irradication of the local fawna. We were assured federally that the wolves spread would be slow and that they most likely would never leave the Yellowstone area. In one year there were packs across Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and Idaho. The wolves introduced have never been native to the area and are much more aggressive than the native species that had been hunted to extinction ever were. They have killed countless cattle and sheep, attacked people, and eliminated herds of both deer and elk. Not to mention, they have been seen snatching small dogs and hauling them off for dinner. Wyoming has the right idea with kill on sight. They cause more grief than they are worth. Let them stay in Canada. Everyone is so against killing the wolves and that it's a crime against nature but if you kill one wolf you're savings 24 elk/deer a year. What about all the deer and Elk that are dying every year by not killing wolves? You do the math, one pack of 18 wolves kill how many deer yearly?

Very interesting. Of course, I realize the horse must have died years ago, so artistic license with this... Thanks for that, backgroundartiste! Very interesting.

The horse's real name was King Charles and Miss Taylor was given the horse after the film and had him until he was thirty when he passed away. If you do the math you will find that he went ahead of Miss Taylor many years ago. “The Pi” (short for Pirate) was a chestnut so the black mane and forelock out of place.

Hello, paper masks? For a virus? It’s laughable" I found funny that it was and it is a effective way to reduce the risk of this kind of diseases. I think you should read a little more before make a political cartoon of this type.
